As we near the end of the year and prepare to start fresh with new reading challenges and goals, it’s not a bad idea to look back. I found A List of Must-Reads (2015) and A List of Must-Reads from 2016 from Bustle. What do you think? How many have you read? What additions or changes would you make?
From the 2015 list, I was familiar with 14 of the authors. Probably everyone has seen the covers for Amy Poehler’s, of Tina Fey’s, and Mindy Kaling’s latest. I haven’t read Bluets by Maggie Nelson but I did read Argonauts, and it was very well done. I’d also read Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston. From the 2016 list I was surprised to find I had not read any of the titles, and was only familiar with two of the selected authors.
This list from LifeHack might contain some more familiar titles and authors. Of this list from Real Simple I’ve read 5 and have another 2 on the to-read shelf. And I’ve read 6 of 14 from this list of Reader’s Digest.
If you had to pick just one book to recommend to everyone you know, which would it?
Until Next Time.
